Interesting time given there is a non TV game at 1900. Perhaps the club wanted an early kick off given the journey back north afterwards? We had an 1830 in the league before the times settled on 1900, so it is possible the time is down to us rather than the SFA. Friday is better than Sunday given the Dundee game on the following Tuesday.
-
Only Boyce has now scored more Championship goals than Toddy this season.
-
And then change their minds and claim they never sent it.....
-
And I respect yours too. The SFA have a decision to make and, whenever we play, be it 1500 next Saturday or not, I will be paying St Mirren to watch the game and hoping we beat them!!
-
Sorry, I disagree. He has done a significant amount in his role, not least in turning round the lives of many throughout the Commonwealth, not least in Scotland, through the Duke of Edinburgh Awards scheme, so rescheduling a few games out of respect is something that we should embrace. Early kick offs seem the logical solution, or moving the games to the Sunday (as long as the Dundee game gets moved back too).
-
Whilst it would be good if they did, it is very unlikely Dundee will lose all their games. We need to focus on winning our last three league games. If we could pick results to suit us, Dunfermline have been struggling recently and are at home to Dundee and Queen of the South before we play next in the league, so the best outcome for us would be Dundee beating Dunfermline, Raith beating Queen of the South and Queen of the South beating Dunfermline. Chances are that won’t all happen, but if it did we’d still be fourth doing into the Dundee game. Our best option is definitely to focus on winning our games, as nine points should see us in the top four.

Given the importance of the league games, it wouldn’t surprise me if some players are rested against St Mirren to ensure they are available for Dundee. With most of the squad fit, it makes sense to take advantage of it.
-
The booking that it was unclear who the card was shown to turned out to be Storey for sarcastically applauding the linesman.
-
Noted today were Sam Winnall for Oxford and Rory McAllister for Cove.

Very well said. Only four weeks ago when we kicked off against Raith on 12 March, we were sitting in 9th place. Four weeks on, we are undefeated in 8 games, have enjoyed a great win against County, and have taken 14 points out of 18 in the league. If we can win our last three games, we will almost certainly be in the play offs given the other games to be played. What do we want on Tuesday? Wins for Dundee and Raith would suit, but would mean we realistically are only aiming for 4th. I would take that! In terms of today, it was not our best performance in a game either team could have won. Ridgers had a few decent saves to keep Queens out, and Mckay had several vital tackles. Allan and Mackay had most of our efforts but without success whilst Sutherland had our best chance to win if after a clever Vincent dummy. Toddy took his goal very well.
-
On Sportsound that discussions are taking place about the Saturday games with an announcement to follow at some point. At the very least the time will change, but quite possibly the day too.
-
Hard fought match which could have gone either way. In no way a classic but the point probably fair. Other results did us no real harm. Hopefully Tuesday’s results go our way.
-
Dundee have equalised against Morton. All games draws as things stand.
-
Deas booked for dissent after ref pulled the game back after a Harper foul.
-
Harper on for Toddy. Implies we will settle for the point?
-
We’ve just had a great chance but Sutherland straight at keeper after Vincent dummied Storey’s cross.
-
He’s been much better since switched to the right. Just had a decent long shot. Dundee losing to Morton.
-
Sutherland on for Allan.
-
Credit Mckay there for that critical tackle in the box. He’s had several this afternoon.
-
Toddy!!!! 1-1. Beat two defenders to get header in the box after cross by Storey (I think).
-
1 down. Queens player picked up ball in own half and ran forward and scored without us getting a tackle in. We need a reaction now.
-
Mackay and Allan have both come close in the last few minutes.
-
Queens have taken Jones off. Allardice walloped him with the ball just before half time. Vincent on for MacGregor. We’ve been second best this half so far.
-
He’s been invisible so far....
-
Half time. 0-0 probably fair enough. We’ve shaded it but Queens have had the better chances with two good saves by Ridgers. Not the best 45 of football this season by a long way. This game could go either way.
